Brrrrr chilly!! 10:00 p.m |
I dawdled my way through the morning. Where the hell did I get dawdled from? And what do you think it means? The spell check let it go through so it must be a word. I think it means to shuffle things around with no real purpose. that was me. I moved the manila envelope stuffed full of tax receipts maybe six, seven times. I picked up a guitar and strummed it with no song in mind, just enjoying the feel of it in my hands. I went on line with Telus to check out the TV packs. Right now I have a dozen packs and were are paying $100 month and don't watch most of them. As long as I keep the Family Feud channel and the News, the lovely Lisa says I can do what I want. Mind you, we had this conversation after she had worked a sixteen hour day. I had a conversation with my agent Nancy about somebody asking something about my possible availability for something that may or may not happen. I hate that!
So what I have learned to do over my thirty years as an actor is, the three P's, be Prepared, be Personable, be Professional and as soon as the audition is over put it in the file with all the other rejection notices. That way if it happens, you're happy and surprised. If it doesn't, you forget about it until you see it on TV. It's not personal. If you take it that way, it will make you crazy! And I already have one foot on that train!

The Cave at Blue Mountain Park, in the summer it's a waterfall. |
While I was dawdling I also wrote yesterdays blog and drank five or six cups of Joe. I was buzzing! It seemed like the perfect time to do a workout. I went down in the green Room cranked up TSN radio and listened to the Canucks lunch. I don't know how good a team the Canucks are because they haven't fielded a healthy line up all year. I heard the GM saying no trade line action because when all the injured guys come back it is going to be like a trade. What a crock of Poop Fairy Dust! All I can really say is at least I'm not a Leaf fan!
Just like taxes, when you increase the number of exercises you do, they never go back down. I am now doing twenty sets of ten reps each. I tried to increase the number of reps in each set, but I kept losing count. I'll just do more sets. This is good for now. 200 One Stair Steps and I was done. I haven't been riding the Iron Maiden just because of time constraints and because I would rather be outside walking around in this beautiful winter weather we were having.

Not present, Chicken Teriyaki |
After my shower I got in the truck and drove to Tentatsu for lunch. It was 2:30 when I got there. I left the Rat dogs at home with the promise I would take them out later. Why do dog people do that? The dog doesn't care? As soon as your out the door, he's looking at porn and riding the love monkey!!
At least that's how the lovely Lisa thinks those sites got into the browser history? I had the $7 lunch special and sat in the window seat looking out at the bus stop on Hastings Street. It is a very busy bus stop with a bus coming by every few minutes. It's in a very busy shopping district with Asian fruit markets and Italian deli's sprinkled among the dozen or so restaurants.

And a Holistic Vet |
It's kind of weird having people look at you while your eating. I was up and out of there before 3:00. I had a date with the Rat dogs.
I wish everyone I met was as happy to see me as the Rat dogs are. Ten minutes or ten hours it doesn't matter. Tails wagging, bouncing up and down, trying to lick your face! I don't let them. I see where that tongues been! Halters on we were off. I had to go to the bank so I ended up taking them to Blue Mountain Park.
|
Picnic anyone? |
We don't go there very often. It's got a big new playground for the kids and I don't want the Rat dogs peeing on the equipment. That and the Animal Control Officer is always lurking around there.
They have a statue garden in the park.

It don't smell like ass! |
Some of it is quite interesting,
some of it looks like rocks.

Everyone's a critic! |
There must have been a sale on sidewalk chalk.
The Canucks game was through the first period when I got home tied at one goal apiece. I settled in to watch the rest of the game. They were outplayed by the Big Bad Bruins but Eddy Lack in goal was great. A goal in the third period and hold on for dear life in the last two minutes. I got my Ho warning from Chef Boy R Lisa and tidied up the house. It was after 7:00 by the time she got home and with a 2:00 a.m wake up call she had a shower and we had a bite to eat together and she was down for the count.
I watched way to many episodes of the Mentalist and went to bed about midnight. Lunch with Peter tomorrow.
That's all I've got
Till Next time
Peace out Y'all
